Nominate or self-nominate an individual and/or organization who has made a difference in the art culture in Richland in 2024 by Thursday, February 13, 2025, at 11:00 a.m.
The Supporting the Arts in Richland Awards recognizes those who contribute to or support artistic endeavors, including visual arts, literature, music, or entertainment that enhance the quality of life in Richland.
Last year's individual winner was Brandie Soden (formerly Saint-Claire), an inspiring leader and passionate advocate for the arts in the Tri-Cities. A Richland native and Bomber Alumni, Brandie has been a driving force behind the beloved Art in the Park Festival, a cultural cornerstone in the region for over 73 years.
The Organization Award was presented to the Academy of Children's Theatre (ACT), an organization dedicated to fostering creativity and passion for the arts in youth since its founding in June of 1995. Continually growing beyond their in-house productions, ACT reaches out to the community through outreach programs in schools and nonprofit organizations, encouraging students to engage with and contribute to their local communities. ACT is steadfast in placing children at the heart of its productions, ensuring an immersive, safe, and affirming environment that nurtures a love for theater arts.
The Richland Arts Commission will consider submittals at their next workshop. The chosen recipients will be presented with an award at a Richland City Council meeting in March or April of 2025.
